Crossfit is a functional training program which emphasizes using your own body as your most valuable piece of equipment. 
Crossfit appeals to amateur fitness enthusiasts, teens, and busy corporate executives as well as soccer moms and athletes. CrossFit is the principal fitness and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide.
Why? Because the Crossfit program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive We specialize in NOT specializing. It involves being "fit" in a way that means much more than being able to run a mile, or bench press an impressive number. It's more than doing 
endless minutes on the elliptical or going through a machine-based circuit on standard "gym equipment." It incorporates a broader view of being "fit" that includes metabolic conditioning, strength training, functional exercise, interval training, and even some gymnastics skills, in an environment that is purposefully simple, with YOU being the most important piece of equipment in the place.
The founder, Greg Glassman,
nicely summarizes the CrossFit approach as a strength and
conditioning program built on constantly varied, if not
randomized, functional and scalable movements executed
at high intensity. Each part of that definition is important:
The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience.
Thousands of athletes worldwide have followed our workouts posted daily on this and Crossfit.com websites and distinguished themselves in combat, the streets, the ring, stadiums, gyms and their own homes.
